Hi Samir,
I feel the amount will be subjected to TDS u/s 194C @ 1%.
It has been clarified that:
When the advertising agency makes payment to their models etc. TDS is deducted u/s 194J.
When advertising agency makes payment for production of programme, the payment is subjected to TDS u/s. 194C @ 2%.
When payment is made directly to the media, payment is subjected to TDS u/s. 194C @1%.
The publishing/broadcasting of advertisement materials in the media by the agency is in pursuance of a contract between the agency and the media for the purpose of advertisement. Hence the payment should also be subjected to TDS u/s. 194C @ 1%.
However, I would like the query to remain open. Lets hope, a better and final solution by our penal of experts.

Samir,
Payment made by an advertisement agency to print media or electronic media is not subject to TDS under section 194 C. Please refer to circular No 717 dated August 14,1995
